Well ONCE i had him sent to me from Lousianna all the way to Chicago and we fell in love with him..he got bigger and bigger...he is now 7 pds and is tall and long body. He has out grew the bag we have for him. I have been disapptd but we love him and cant give him back.
Once we recd him he did seem a bit large ..I took him to the vet and the vet said this yorkie will be big about 6-8 pds. I was soo mad and told the breeder she said the vet was right...I asked her why she would sell him to us for the $1500 when she had the bigger yorkies we could have gotton for less..she says now there is nothing that she can do because yorkies that she sales one in 50 dont conform to the size she says..even though his parents are 4 pds and 2.9 pds...he just happened to be one of their big pups....I think we were cheated. She wont return any of my messages....
HELP..is there anything I can do. Or do I take it as a loss...!! | hi darbie,i don't know what you can do,it has been a long time since you got your baby.But look at it from another point of view,YOU LOVE HIM,isn't that what you wanted when you send of for the "little dog"He can't help it that he is bigger than a tiny yorkie ,but he really isn't a BIG dog.A 6-8 pound dog is still a very small dog.But i bet that he gives you lots of love and after all ,isn't that why we get our little furbaby's.We want them to love us and give our love to them.If you have that ,then it wasn't a loss,but a gain.I am so sorry about your problems with your arm,but you managed all this time ,can't you keep it up this way?Just think ,if that lady would say ,give him back and get your money back.Could you give him up?Or would you rather keep your "little 'furbaby?If it was me,i could'n give him up,that would really be a loss i couldn't live with.By the way ,my little mysty joy is about the same size as yours ,but to me she is still a tiny little dog with a big heart to love me with.I hope this helped you to just look at the situation from a diffrent point of you .God bless you. |
